Subject: Tyler Street Sidewalk Improvement Project
District: 1
Recommend
ed Action
Adopt a resolution approving the conceptual plan for Capital Improvement Program Project No. 6103, renaming the project title to the Tyler Street Sidewalk Improvement Project and authorizing the City Manager or designee to proceed with its final design and engineering.

Executive Summary
Tyler Street is a north-south roadway between the Village and the Barrio. The Tyler Street Complete Streets Study was identified in the Village & Barrio Master Plan as a priority project to enhance walkability and neighborhood connectivity. The plan included three conceptual design options for Tyler Street as a starting point for further evaluation. In April 2022, the City Council directed staff to accelerate this effort as part of Capital Improvement Program Project No. 6103.

In response, staff are now proposing a revised approach that focuses specifically on pedestrian accessibility. This updated concept transitions the project from a full complete streets design to a more targeted sidewalk improvement effort. It includes sidewalk and driveway reconstruction along the east side of Tyler Street to enhance walkability and Americans with Disabilities Act- compliant access.

This refined approach not only responds to community priorities but also represents a more fiscally responsible investment. By narrowing the project scope, the city can achieve meaningful improvements in accessibility and safety while staying within the existing Capital Improvement Program budget and avoiding the need for additional funding.

Staff are bringing the Tyler Street Sidewalk Improvement Project to the City Council for its consideration based on direction received at the April 26, 2022, City Council meeting to prioritize the Tyler Street Complete Streets project. The item is now being brought forward for the City Council’s approval of the conceptual plan and authorization to proceed with final design and engineering.

Explanation & Analysis
Background
The city is working on making streets inviting for everyone, whether driving, walking or biking.

Known as “complete streets,” this approach recognizes the street as a public space that can be safe and inviting for all the ways people might want to get around.

One of those streets where these improvements were considered is Tyler Street between Oak Avenue and Chestnut Avenue.

The Village & Barrio Master Plan, which the City Council adopted on July 24, 2018, and amended in 2019, 2021 and 2023, highlights a number of street design projects including the exploration of Tyler Street improvements.

In April 2022, the City Council asked staff to accelerate several projects identified in the Village & Barrio Master Plan, including the Tyler Street Traffic Circulation Study, Capital Improvement Program Project No. 6103. (The minutes from that April 26, 2022, City Council meeting are provided as Exhibit 2.)
The Village & Barrio Master Plan identifies the potential reconfiguration of Tyler Street south of Oak Avenue into a “shared space” and from a two-way to a one-way street as a key recommendation in the Barrio neighborhood (Section 1.6.2.B) and discusses the potential project in greater detail in Section 4.3.11.I. The master plan also anticipated that a Tyler Street streetscape and traffic direction analysis would be conducted in the mid-term timeframe, within two to three years. The relevant excerpts from the Village & Barrio Master Plan are provided in Exhibit 3.

In May 2023, staff began an outreach effort to understand the community’s needs, values and priorities for this project and get feedback about potential designs outlined in the Village & Barrio Master Plan. In June 2023, staff brought the project to the Traffic & Mobility Commission to solicit feedback.

Since then, staff completed additional analyses, narrowing down the options, and then brought this project back to the Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission to solicit feedback in July 2024.

This report highlights the proposed improvements.

Existing conditions
Tyler Street is just east of the
railroad tracks and the Coastal Rail
Trail and runs north to south from
Oak Avenue to Chestnut Avenue. It is
classified as a local street within the
city’s General Plan Mobility Element.

In its current configuration, the
street has one travel lane in each
direction and parking on the east
side with no bike lanes. A sidewalk runs the entire length on the east side and there is a short section of sidewalk on the west side between Walnut Avenue and Chestnut Avenue.

There are various land uses along this street. These include a mix of single-family homes, multifamily homes and a senior living facility along with several industrial businesses, including auto repair shops, towing companies, warehouses and a storage facility. A Boys and Girls Club of Carlsbad building is at the north end of the street.

Staff collected data on the traffic along Tyler Street and surrounding roadways in December 2022, while school was in session, to better understand how the street is currently being used.

The data collection measured how many vehicles, trucks, bikes and pedestrians used Tyler Street and the adjacent roadways.

Exhibit 4 provides figures showing the traffic volumes recorded along Tyler Street and the surrounding streets. Tyler Street was shown to have fewer than 800 daily vehicles. Given the number of industrial businesses, the street was found to have a higher percentage of trucks than most local streets, with the highest being approximately 150 trucks, or 19% of total traffic, between Oak Avenue and Pine Avenue. About 170 pedestrians and 25 bicyclists were counted on Tyler Street throughout the entire day.

Initial public outreach
In May 2023, staff began outreach efforts to better understand the community’s needs, values and priorities for this project. This outreach effort included the following:
• A community meeting held on May 17, 2023, at the Harding Community Center • An online survey
• Direct contact with residents on Tyler Street
• Door-to-door visits and meetings with residents, property owners and businesses • Door-to-door Spanish language outreach
Exhibit 5 provides the detailed input that was received during this outreach process. As a part of this outreach effort, staff used the initially proposed concepts from the Village & Barrio Master Plan to help facilitate the discussions. Some of the general recommendations heard from the local community were:
• Improving walkability
• Maintaining access to local businesses
• Maintaining parking capacity
• Making the street safe for all modes of travel
Initial design options
Given this public feedback, the project team reviewed the feasibility of the initial recommendations proposed in the Village & Barrio Master Plan. Combining these two efforts, staff concluded that the following aspects of the previous options needed to be refined:

A shared space alternative adding decorative pavers and bringing the roadway down to one continuous level
Residents expressed concerns with feeling safe walking along Tyler Street without having the physical separation of curbs between them and the vehicles. They also noted that pavers may make travel difficult for residents with walkers and wheelchairs. After further review of this concept, staff also found that removing the curb and gutter could cause drainage issues.

Conversion of Tyler Street to one-way vehicular traffic only When this concept was presented to businesses along Tyler Street, several of them had concerns that it could limit access to their businesses, especially for their larger trucks.

Staff also had concerns that this may have adverse effects on emergency response times on Tyler Street. Because of these concerns, staff removed the one-way vehicular traffic option from the proposed concepts.

Addition of bike lanes
Through the community outreach process, staff noted there was a general preference against adding bike lanes on Tyler Street given the low number of vehicles using the roadway. Additionally, existing bike lanes on Roosevelt Street and the separated shared- use path along the Coastal Rail Trail adjacent to Tyler Street already provide adequate cycling infrastructure. The new bike lanes were therefore removed from the proposed concepts.

Relocating parallel parking to the west side of Tyler Street Several businesses expressed concerns about relocating parallel parking to the west side of Tyler Street, particularly regarding access for larger trucks. Since most of the residential density is on the east side, staff determined that maintaining parking on the east side would better serve residents, so the proposed concepts maintained parking on the east side.

Proposed project options presented to the Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission Based on the public outreach and analysis conducted during the initial phase of this project, staff proposed two options for this project to the Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission on July 1, 2024.

Option 1: Complete Streets Improvements with partial sidewalk extension on the west side This option would extend the existing sidewalk on the west side of Tyler Street north to Walnut Avenue. It would also add a crosswalk across Tyler Street at Walnut Avenue to connect pedestrians to the continuous sidewalk along the east side of Tyler Street. A curb extension would be added on the east side to improve visibility and shorten the crossing distance.

Option 2: Complete streets improvements with full sidewalk extension on the west side Under this option, the sidewalk along the entire length of Tyler Street on the west side would be extended. This might require the sidewalk to encroach onto private property to avoid relocating utilities and removing trees. Because the properties on the west side of Tyler Street are being redeveloped, the city will require that these projects provide sidewalks along their frontage that are fully compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. This option 2 will entail significant costs because of the potential need to relocate utilities and acquire additional right-of-way, so it could be considered as a longer-term solution that builds upon Option 1 to further enhance pedestrian access and connectivity on Tyler Street.

Both options include these general improvements:
• Curb extensions and new crosswalk markings along Tyler Street at the intersections of Chestnut Avenue, Walnut Avenue, Pine Avenue and Oak Avenue.

Curb extensions help physically narrow the roadway, slow vehicles making turns at the intersections, create a shorter distance for pedestrians to cross and increase the July 15, 2025

visibility of pedestrians prior to crossing. Construction of curb extensions may remove one to two parking spaces; how many would be further determined during the detailed design phase. Staff have checked each intersection using vehicle turning simulations to ensure that fire trucks and delivery trucks can safely and successfully make the necessary turns. Shared lane markings along Tyler Street. Sharrows, or shared lane markings, are road striping symbols that help signal to drivers to share the travel lane with bicyclists. They help guide cyclists, alert drivers to their presence and help calm traffic.
• Reconstructing sections of the east side sidewalk at all driveways on Tyler Street to achieve ADA compliance.

These improvements would create a smoother walking surface, eliminating the frequent and abrupt drops in the sidewalk that currently exist today. To accommodate these changes, some of the private property driveways may need to be reconstructed to match the elevation changes. That will be determined during the detailed design phase.

Exhibit 6 shows the proposed conceptual plans for the two options.

Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission recommendation
Staff presented the proposed Tyler Street improvements to the Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission on July 1, 2024. After hearing staff’s presentation and public comments, the Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission voted 4/1/1 to recommend that staff not proceed with the project. (The minutes of that meeting are provided as Exhibit 7.) Staff-recommended project design
In response to the Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission’s recommendation to not proceed with the project as proposed, staff are proposing a compromise that preserves essential pedestrian improvements while reducing the project’s scope and cost. This revised and scaled-back version of Option 1 focuses on reconstructing the sidewalk and driveway aprons along only the east side of Tyler Street where most foot traffic currently occurs.

The following elements from the original concept have been removed to scale back the project:
• Curb extensions
• West side sidewalk extension
• Mid-block crossing
By concentrating the improvements on the east side, the proposed design will smooth out uneven sidewalks and driveways, improve ADA-compliant accessibility, and create a more comfortable and continuous path of travel for pedestrians. While limited in scope, these sidewalk improvement upgrades still address key safety and accessibility goals and represent a balanced alternative between doing nothing and implementing the full project. They also align with both the community feedback the city has received and the Traffic Safety and Mobility Commission’s recommendation to not proceed with the more extensive options.

The recommended conceptual design is shown in Exhibit 1, Attachment A.

Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission updated recommendation Staff presented the proposed scaled-back concept for the Tyler Street Sidewalk Improvement Project to the Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission on July 7, 2025. The Commission voted 6/0/1 to recommend that the City Council approve the conceptual plan for the scaled-back project.

Based on that recommendation, staff now request the City Council’s approval of the conceptual plan of the scaled-back project, renaming the project title to Tyler Street Sidewalk Improvement Project and authorizing the City Manager or designee to proceed with its final design and engineering.

Fiscal Analysis
The preliminary cost to design and construct the staff-recommended improvements for the Tyler Street Sidewalk Improvement Project is estimated at $551,000. Capital Improvement Program Project No. 6103, which is funded from the General Capital Construction Fund, currently has an available balance of $914,343, which is sufficient to cover these costs.

Staff will return to the City Council once the final
engineering and design have been completed
and a construction cost estimate is available, with a request to adopt the final plans, specifications and contract documents and authorize bidding for the construction contract.

Next Steps
Upon receiving City Council approval, staff will execute a task order with a consultant to prepare the full engineering design and construction plans. Staff plan to return to the City Council for adoption of the plans, specifications and contract documents, and authorization to bid for the construction project in late 2026.

1. Implement the Grand Avenue Promenade and
other street improvemen
ts illustrated in the Master
Plan to add a sense of identity to the historic center
of Carlsbad.

2. Dedicate special and immediate a
ttention to traffic
calming on principal and key Barrio streets, such
as Tyler Street, Roosevelt Street, Madison Street,
Harding Street, Oak Avenue and Chestnut Avenue.

In addition, enhance the north-south streets
that connect directly to the Village core to create
continuous lighting, trees, sidewalks and bicycle
access from the Village and throughout the Barrio.

3. Plant street trees that ar
e non-invasive and
drought-tolerant.

4. Ensure that new development crea
tes a continuous
and interesting façade along the street with an
emphasis on pedestrian-scaled features.

5. Minimize vehicular inter
ruptions to pedestrians
as much as possible through minimal curb cuts
and alley-only access, and through parking that is
screened and located behind buildings.

6. Plan for service vehicle deliv
eries through curb
lane management and, where feasible, alley-only
delivery areas.

7. Reconfigure on-street park
ing through re-striping,
reducing unnecessary curb cuts and red-striping
in ways that will increase parking supply, calm
vehicular traffic, and improve pedestrian comfort
and safety.

8. Recognize streets
, alleys and other public rights of
way as valuable assets for public access, mobility,
space, beauty, and utility; accordingly, maintain
and acquire right of way as necessary to implement
the Master Plan.

I. Tyler Street—Street Cross Section 7
Tyler Street provides north-south mobility through the central portion of the Master Plan area. Existing conditions provide a forty-foot right of way with thirty feet of roadway area as measured from curb to curb. Two-way traffic is accommodated with eleven-foot travel lanes and an eight-foot parallel parking lane is provided along the east side of the street. Parkway conditions are characterized by a five-foot planter along the west side and a five-foot sidewalk along the east side. Figures 4-20, 4-21, 4-22, and 4-23 show existing and proposed conditions.

(APPROX.)
Figure 4-21, Tyler Street: Proposed Conditions A
Proposed Condition Option A7
Option A illustrates a concept which views the street
as a shared space, or “woonerf, ” rather than just a
channel for vehicular mobility. With this concept,
two-way traffic and parallel parking would continue
to be accommodated. However, the street would be
single continuous level (no curbs). Decorative paving
or colored concrete would be used throughout the
right of way and different areas of travel lanes would be delineated through the use of paving and/or color.

Option B would improve bicycle mobility by providing
northbound and southbound bicycle lanes through
removal of one travel lane. The resulting configuration would provide one northbound travel lane. A two-foot
buffer would be located between the southbound
bicycle lane and traffic lane. The parallel parking lane would be reduced from eight feet to seven feet in
width.

Option C would continue to accommodate two-way
traffic with two lanes reduced in width to ten feet each and sidewalks on both sides of the street. The eight-
foot parallel parking lane would be retained; however,
the location would be moved from the east side to the
west side of the street. Considering the variety of uses in this area, mountable curbs would accommodate
maneuvering and accessibility for a greater range of
vehicles.

J. Roosevelt Street (and streets with less
than 48’ between curbs)
For Barrio streets where the width does not
accommodate the enhanced bikeway configuration,
the placement of bulbouts and street trees can create
a slower and much more comfortable and aesthetically
pleasing street character.

Reconfiguring city streets so people can get around Carlsbad as easily and safely as possible is one of the key priorities in the City of Carlsbad’s General Plan. The General Plan calls for street designs that encourage slower speeds while making walking and biking more inviting. This approach to street design, called “complete streets,” is a best practice for cities today and required by a state law passed in 2008.

Through Carlsbad’s active transportation strategy, the city is working to update and design roads that encourage drivers to slow down, enhance safety for people who bike and walk, and improve overall access and connectivity to trails. These modernized roadways are often called “complete streets.”

Tyler Street, located in the city’s historic Village and Barrio community, is one of the locations where these improvements are planned for. The project area includes Tyler Street from Oak Avenue to Chestnut Avenue, where there are single and multi-family homes and a variety of businesses. Currently only one side of the street accommodates parking and a continuous sidewalk. One street to the west is the Coastal Rail Trail, a separated trail just for biking and walking.

Concepts for the area were first developed from community input as part of the Village and Barrio Master Plan, which the City Council approved in 2019. The master plan establishes the vision for the ideal future character and development of the two areas and sets forth the July 15, 2025

strategy or “roadmap” for achieving that vision. This plan has been developed in consultation with the Carlsbad community through an iterative process that began in 2013.

Community input from the Village and Barrio Master Plan, paired with the development of the active transportation strategy and the General Plan Mobility Element, are reflected in initial concepts. The policies in all these documents reflect the high value the Carlsbad community places on safety, healthy outdoor activities and the environment.

During the City Council’s Capital Improvement Projects planning for fiscal year 2022-2023, Tyler Street was identified as a high priority project.

Design criteria
• Plans must reflect the policy direction already approved by the City Council in various planning documents, and state traffic safety standards and traffic laws. • Designs must meet the needs of first responders and other emergency response.

To ensure the street’s design reflect community needs, values and priorities, the city developed a community engagement approach for input:

Phase 1: Community needs, values and priorities 2013-2014 The first phase of input occurred through the development of the Village and Barrio Master Plan, where needs, values and priorities were identified to develop three initial designs.

Phase 2: Feedback on proposed options May – July 2023 Further define the Village and Barrio guidelines for Tyler Street, get feedback about the three proposed designs.

Phase 3: Refined options and review of 20% design Summer 2024 The project team will share updated designs with the community and based on additional input, recommend one preferred design to bring to final design and approval from the Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission and the City Council

Goal
• The final project reflects the needs, values and priorities of the community.

Objectives
• Provide an accessible process that reaches out to and hears from a broad cross section of those interested in and affected by this issue.
• Design activities to gather a balance of perspectives, to support informed decision- making.
• Clearly communicate the public engagement process so people know how their input will be used and what decisions are already made.
• Build relationships and connections between community members and the city.

About the input
The International Association of Public Participation’s spectrum of public participation illustrates a variety of approaches to involving the public in decision making. The Tyler Street input process falls in the “consult” level – obtain input on the analysis, options or decisions that have already been made.

Qualitative input with a convenience sample
The input in this report is qualitative in nature and was obtained through a convenience sample. This means the city focused on gaining an in-depth understanding of community member perspectives, and the results cannot be generalized to the entire population of the city within a defined margin of error.

That’s why the input in this report should be considered with a similar weight as other forms of feedback that have always been part of the city’s decision-making process, such as comments made at City Council meetings or emails sent to the city expressing an opinion.

Verbatim Comments from Tyler Street Survey

What's most important to you as the city considers changes to Tyler Street?
Better/safer options for pedestrians More biz/people coming in, make it appealing Bicycle Blvd/ Dropping train tracks – how will it look? Electrical posts are on the way Sidewalks are inconsistent None of these options are divided from traffic lanes Something similar to North of roundabout Oceanside City needs to focus on prevention other than enforcement Having only one way in the village can be confusing Demographics on Tyler Streets Needs to be safe to walk. Keep peope/traffic separate Current map of Tyler St. Is misleading Cars drop off at auto One way into Village because going south you have Roosevelt option Bike path provides bike lanes so people can use those instead Concern about bike lanes in both directions Move parking to west side of the street No parking on residential side Driveway a concern Walnut and Pine enter only from east side ---> Consider this Dangerous walking because most ingress comes from east Sidewalks on both sides maybe ok Walkways improved + better pedestrian traffic Mini storage facility creates most of traffic Concerned about what city is trying to accomplish by exploring these changes Agree bike lanes with traffic, sidewalks, etc. are too much Lot of foot traffic some people even walk down center of road Want it to be safe to pull out of driveways Nice sidewalks would be great Want the street to look nice Parking is #1 safety issue because having to (space) - solve by moving parking to west to switch and change road will be tough
Sidewalks: all in favor of addition of sidewalks on both sides for the senior community population which lives on the street Parking: both sides to accommodate tourists, residents in apartment complex, and active loading zone for businesses and residents Loading zone and one/two-way street:

Majority of group (who were residents) supports a sharrow as opposed to split lanes for biking; residents in favor of one-way sharrow. Business owner and property manager in favor of two-way and must include loading zone for businesses and complex

Fix stop sign at Roosevelt and Madison Keep accessibility to school / Boys & Girls Club This is an arterial road used for industrial zone access Consider access to heavy equipment 65ft long cargo trucks for Budda T – Walnut Create a pick of/drop off area for senior living facility Make the sidewalks accessible
Preference on prioritizing pedestrian safety Providing consistency along the street, making it look nicer Take into account growth along Tyler street Poor traffic control at Chestnut and Oak Avenue where Tyler Street intersects
What are the costs associated with the three options? What is the maintenance/longevity of the materials used? (pavers, concrete, etc.) Sufficient pedestrian walkway width with no overhead power lines where birds crap on you as is prevalent in Carlsbad and dedicated bike path Being able to drive both ways on Tyler Street. Having visibility when leaving businesses, so that this visibility is not blocked or reduced by cars parallel parked on Tyler Street.

Probably maintaining 2-way vehicle traffic.

SIDEWALKS. MANY PEDESTRIANS ON TYLER ST
Maintain or increase parking spaces as much as possible. 97% of people drive cars, not bikes. I would never ride a bike at my age in Carlsbad. The limited public transit is too dirty, dangerous, and inconvenient, and without parking, you make the beach inaccessible to most residents. This is not equitable and inclusive for ALL citizens. Let's be realistic and fair.

For me, it is important that there is a graded separation between the vehicles and pedestrians, ideally some sort of physical buffer between the bikers and the vehicles as well. Curbing create a greater sense of safety and security for our most vulnerable travelers (bike & ped) Tyler Street is the gateway between the Barrio and the rail road tracks once buried. Tyler Street is an important alternative to Roosevelt Street and provides options for vehicular redundancy incase one or multiple streets are blocked for emergency vehicles. Please consider Tyler Street for safe street design with two sides of pedestrian and bicycle paths while separating cars.

Sidewalks on both sides of street. Safe bike lane.

Safety, of course, as well as improvements that are aesthetically pleasing and function well for the immediate neighborhood.

I live on Tyler St. and believe it should not be changed. This is a huge waste of taxpayer money. All of the proposals are stupid. Over half of the street are business properties. There are NO traffic issues on Tyler St.

There is a lovely, easily accessed, bike path next to the train line, on the 'OTHER SIDE of the block, running parallel to Tyler St. for bike and walking.

Is the city official orchestrating this action looking for votes, or a talking point for the next election ?
Keeping traffic two ways.

Less children on bicycles in main traffic lanes.

Sidewalks
There is no need to waste money changing this short block parallel to rail trail. I attended a community meeting and NO ONE at our table - including senior citizens living on the street - wanted any of the 3 choices what the people who live in the neighborhood want.

Wide sidewalk on east side, reduced crosswalks and traffic calming, speed management on the speed to ave 15 to 20 mph speed range.

Walkability and adequate facilities for people of all ages and abilities to walk comfortably.

Pedestrian safety. Accomodate vehicles bikes and parking Safety and multi modal travel way
Do something, anything. Sidewalks on both sides would be ideal. If possible take down the military/boarder style fencing at tea factory… Making the changes aesthetically pleasing.

1. Parking 2. 2 way traffic 3. walking 4. Bike share road Tyler street is a tiny stretch of roadway with minimal ADTs. It also runs parallel to the train path, which continues long past Tyler's southern terminus. I'd much rather see prioritization along Chestnut intersections, especially at 2-way stops.
1 Maintaining beauty and function
the ability for walkers to cross the street safely. No car and bike shared space. Each should have their own lane
reducing vehicular traffic
Safety of the pedestrians and bicyclists.

Maintaining support for continuous walking and two-way vehicular traffic with parking to support commercial/residential activity. Bury the power lines.

Safety and walkability
Safety of Children going to Boys and Girls either by Car, Bike or walking.

Protected bike lanes
Pedestrian safety
Parking and controlling speed of cars. Clearly defined Cross Walk to get to/from, Girls and Boys Club.

Parking! The city has done a terrible time managing parking by removing parking to increase curbside dining and increasing High Density housing in the village.

Safe space to walk
Walkability and increased density
Why Tyler Street? Why all these "improvements" on this stret? Having a two way street with sidewalks
Considering all kinds of traffic in planning, vehicle, on foot and bicycle so I appreciate all the work that is being put into this porject.

This has been an alley, not a street. I have great concerns this will be used as a cut through for bicycles impeding the businesses who rely on this street accessing their business. I have great concerns for the safe pick up and drop off for children accessing the anita and Girls club. I therefore don’t want any changes to Tyler. It is not broke so doesn’t try to fix something that doesn’t need fixing!. It would be loss for the community I am often frustrated by one way streets. Preserving street parking is also important to me. I think a safe sidewalk with two way traffic and shared bike/car lane for that short stretch of street would be great.

Ease of vehicular traffic, safety for pedestrians and bicyclists (traffic calming), preservation of trees and plantings.

Two way traffic and parking
Option 1- shared space
I like option #1 best
Simplicity.

Practical, functional and safe for all.

Wide smooth streets. Safe for kids on bikes and for kids walking.

Convenience for the businesses and residents.

Controlling the speed....put in speed humps throughout the Barrio! Safety Beautification
Generally, for ALL residential streets n Carlsbad; traffic calming, tree preservation, adequate parking for residents and visitors, safety for pedestrians and NON MOTORIZED bicyclists. Two wheeled vehicles powered by either ICE engines OR electric motors behave like AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS motor vehicles!

1.) Safety, 2.) city spending, 3.) inconvenience to Tyler St residents during changes (I have a 4dy/wk medical schedule, and don’t want to have to park blocks away from the house during changes).

What is important to me is that everyone, regardless of mode of transportation, travels safely.

Option 1
Walkability
Cost effective, multi-modal safety.
not make so many options (spaces for different modes of travel) that it gets too complicated
Safety and traffic flow
Cities have a tendency to make well intended attractive improvements that damage local businesses particularly in the area of parking. The local businesses in that area must concur and endorse any improvements.

What is the problem you’re trying solve? What problems does a solution cause?
safety, flexibility,
Option 1
Parking on both sides
Appearance. I would appreciate any area near the downtown village to be decorative.

Bikability and walkability. The survey didn't ask, but option 2 seems to be the best.

Safe to walk down the street
Safety for all and encouraging alternate modes of transit lighting and sidewalks
Make the street more walkable. Though I'm an avid cyclist and big supporter of cycle paths, etc., this street is too short for a useful bike path.

There is already an excellent bike trail nearby. As Pete P. mentioned in the July 15, 2025

meeting, bike path's should be put in locations where necessary; not everywhere. Too much $. Keep it simple.

Parking is definitely important - there is already not enough parking! Access to local businesses.

Maintaining space for parking and vehicles - these are things that we cannot lose in the village going forward.

I believe that this project is a back door improvement scheme to increase Matt Hall's property values in his rental properties along that Tyler Street.

The millions the City is considering spending on this byway could be better spent in the main barrio.

Safety Of children visiting Boy's and Girl's Club
pedestrian-friendly. safe to walk on the street, ideally on both sides.

First do no harm, would rather you just leave it as is.

Sidewalks and parking. Seriously, until the city FINALLY builds a parking structure like you promised to do in the City lot by the railroad tracks, you can't take away street parking! Local vendors and restaurants NEED local customers. In addition, some people are too old or are unable to ride bikes, they don't want to ride their bikes to go out to dinner or carry their packages after shopping, not everyone in their group rides a bike, etc.

Just because you can do something or you get more money to do something or SANDAG says you should do something or it fits a narrative doesn't mean you should.

What works for you in option 1?
Like it in theory because it is pedestrian friendly
Bikes both ways Easier for those mobility challenges w/flat street If concept is for bikes, make it good Looks pretty
SIDEWALK INCLUSION: sidewalk requested as a requirement for senior population/complex that is built on this street SHARROW: likes sharrow and shared street to create either 1) bigger sidewalks and/or 2) parking spaces TWO-WAY: likes two-way; group split on one-way or two-way The pavers/color would look nice Generally fine with the idea of bikes sharing the travel lanes with vehicles
The pavers look like they would add curb appeal to downtown Carlsbad.

Pedestrians ability to walk on both sides.

Sidewalk on both sides of street and no overhead power lines over sidewalks Being able to drive both ways on Tyler Street. Having a sidewalk.

Maintaining 2-way vehicle traffic.

Nothing. Street is too narrow now with two way traffic. An oncoming vehicle has to wait for another vehicle. Not enough room for traffic ib two directions I like the idea of a decorative paving in the area to add aesthetics to the boulevard.

decorative paving
I like the two-way traffic and preserved parking.

Of the three, I prefer option 1. It makes the most sense. Tyler is not a through street, nor is it a busy street. The mix of businesses and residences doesn't need bike lanes since the coastal rail trail is just feet away. I really like the idea of decorative paving, especially if it can be harmonized with plantings and trees.

The street stays a two lane road.

What concerns you about option 1?
Not realistic. Couldn’t fit my cars. Not enough space – not functional without taking property This image isn’t a real size street Sidewalk shouldn’t be @ the same level When people park they will encroach on the sidewalk Seen it work in Europe. Inconsistent w/Carlsbad Ebikes are a problem too
Concerns with drainage Not enough space for everything Safety issues Likes flat surface but concerned about drainage What prevents parking if all level? Confusing
SIDEWALK DESIGN MATERIAL: Brick lay for sidewalk is unfriendly to population that uses travel devices such as strollers, canes, assistance devices REPAIR:

Pavements at risk of loosening up needing constant repair similar to bricks that pop up in the village PARKING: missing parking; participants request requirement of dedicated parking space on AT LEAST one side LOADING:
request active loading zone dedicated space in front of senior apartment complex Why isn’t there parking? The parking is a serious issue at the apartment complex; many residents currently park illegally or block loading zone
Pavers may be possibly dangerous for seniors with walkers Concerns regarding no separation of pedestrians/vehicles Is this option feasible with all the driveways?
What is the cost compared to the other two options? Will pavers be cost effective for long-term management.

Shared bike/car lanes. Just not safe for bikes due to prevalent drivers in a hurry in the Barrio
Not having curbs to protect pedestrians on the sidewalks from cars.

Tyler St. seems to narrow to accommodate all of this and be safe.

No sidewalks. Two way traffic. Cars will drive on colored pavement Too many lanes. Too busy. Cars and bikes should share the same lanes in each direction as is the case on other roads in the City.

I am concerned with the fact that the curbs will be removed and pedestrians will not have a physical barrier between the vehicles in the case of a collision or incident. The colored concrete will likely not be sufficient at night as well to act as a safety measure.

What concerns you about option 1?
Space for Bike Lanes - This is a connector to the Coastal Rail Trail It says "shared space for bikes and cars." I'm not sure why there aren't lanes marked like in Options 2 and 3. I don't think the extra expense and advantages (?) of paving outweighs the advantages of safer, marked lanes. Why remove the curbs?! This would be more hazardous to pedestrians.

No particular concerns from the rendering, but hopeful that adequate lighting is also to be included.

Stupid. Waste of taxpayer money. Is the city official orchestrating this action looking for votes, or a talking point for the next election ? None
Shared space does not work. Bicycles are all over the place.

Seems a little crowded.

Is there enough room? Looks too crowded.

Waste of $
Nothing
Cost and long term costs associated with specialized pavements. Speed of vehicles
The sidewalks are too narrow (especially on the western side). Unclear whether or not there are trees and adequate lighting in this plan and whether that would impact the limited walking space. Concern that drivers would not respect the shared space concept.

No curbs reduces pedestrian safety.

Safety, too much going on for limited space.

That nothing will be done.

Nothing
need parking both sides, bikes can share road. There is already bike lanes on Roosevelt & rail trail.

Type IV or shared use paths would be much, much better. There is no need for a parking lane.

Too much traffic. Why the decorative paving? Sounds expensive and not consistent with other streets in the area. Also, pavers shift after time and would be against ADA concerning elevation changes more the 1/4".

The only concern I have is with all three options. When you reach Tyler and Oak, there is a blind spot on the left where you can't see traffic from State turning onto Oak or proceeding down Oak eastbound until they are about ready to hit you. Those parking spots on the south side of Oak block the view.

It seems tight and I would be concerned about there not being a designated space for pedestrians

Nothing
The road width. Traffic and parked cars sharing a narrow space. Narrow sidewalks.

Not enough sidewalk
Needless money spending.

This doesn't seem that different from today - and just seems like it squishes things more to bring another sidewalk. Not sure the value in having a sidewalk on both sides.

1. Tyler is too narrow to accommodate this option. There simply is not enough room for two way traffic, bike lane on both sides, and sidewalks on both sides.

Like wider sidewalk for pedestrians One way could be good for pulling out of driveways, but creates too many parking issues
SIDEWALK INCLUSION: likes inclusion of sidewalk, but prefers both sides have sidewalk SIDEWALK DESIGN: likes paved instead of brick as in Option 1 ONE-WAY: some participants liked one-way to direct traffic better for street and makes crossing street easier and the street safer PARKING: likes inclusion of parking vs Option 1, though could be better If the street was to be one-way, preference on going NB. Preference to move the bike lane to be a sharrow NB only. Possibly look at parking on both sides.

Less moving traffic is appealing.

Everything works. Seems the safest for all concerned
Having separate bike lanes for the safety of the cyclists. Having a sidewalk.

I like option 2. That works.

I like that going to just one-way traffic will slow the overall speeds and automobile traffic in the area. I like that the bikes lanes are completely protected and separated. This is overall my favorite option and likely the safest for the most vulnerable groups (ped & bike)
Dedicated bike lanes.

Reduced traffic, more room for bikelanes. Sufficient parking Clearly marked bike lanes, which could also happen in Option 1, but it isn't shown in the picture. Bikes also have the option of the Rail Trail.

Raised sidewalk with a curb. I kind of like the one-way traffic idea (as long as it works for the businesses there), because it allows for the extra buffer space between cars and bikes. However, I don't know why there can't be sidewalks (with curbs) on both sides of the street.

Not in favor of this option.

Sidewalk
Nothing. All bad.

Larger sidewalk. I know when I walk the sidewalk, our "group" tends to walk partially in the street - so widening one side would be great.

1. One way, northbound. The street is narrow, so one way just fits better. Traffic flow toward the Village makes more sense than southbound. 2. Parking on one side only. (Now, if we could only get parking enforcement to enforce the parking rules.)
Reducing traffic into one direction. This option is much safer for bicycles and pedestrians. Roosevelt is so busy and unsafe. At times that this would be a nice area to buy a pass some of that.

Needs own sidewalk Don’t like one-way w/o traffic control measures Functional Only one way street in the village Just cause it’s quick, doesn’t mean it works Need to consider long term One way is not good because limits use of road Boys and Girls Club really busy in afternoon Safety issue Bikes should follow traffic rules and go some direction Confusing to have bike lines on both ways People parking on side with no parking signs makes street narrower (not good) If driveways on east side vs parking on west side need to move parking to west side for pulling in from east Better for pedestrian walking because more space
OMISSION OF DOUBLE SIDEWALK VS OPTION 1: Sidewalk should be on both sides to cater to community and tourism PARKING: Omission of parking on both sides provides difficulty for residents, businesses, and tourists, although tourism was less concern for residents; more concern for business owners LOADING: request active loading zone dedicated space in front of senior apartment complex BIKE LANE:
prefers shared road with bikes to make space for parking and/or sidewalk inclusion
Concerned people will go down the wrong way, whether accidentally or to save time. The one-way is inconsistent with the rest of the village and may be confusing This option seems to be placing preference on bikes as opposed to people (vehicles/bikes) This option would remove the loading at Tyler Court, very important to residents/care givers there. One-way would force traffic to one location, causing congestion due to poor traffic control Is it safe to have bikes going the opposite direction on a one-way street.

Will the businesses be harmed by the loss of foot traffic on the west side?
Nothing
Not being able to drive both ways on the street, having to only go one way when leaving Tyler Street businesses.

Not in favor of 1-way vehicle traffic. I could make it more difficult for trucks to enter and exit parking lots.

No concerns.

What concerns you about option 2?
If only one lane for cars, there should also be only one lane for bikes, as they need to follow same rules as vehicles if they are using the roads. Then you can build a wider sidewalk on both sides of the street.

The lack of sidewalk on both sides makes it concerning of how pedestrians will be able to access the shop or building entry-points on the side that is only a bike lane. There would have to be clear signage, entry points, pedestrian crossings, etc.

No sidewalks on west side. Include sidewalk on both sides of street. - Sidewalk on only one side. - Not sure one way will work for the auto repair businesses. Have you met with the businesses to see if this option is good for them?
Need sidewalks on both sides. One way traffic is not acceptable.

Priority for two bike lanes and only one drive lane is not pracitcal, given the use in that location.

Stupid. Waste of taxpayer money. Is the city official orchestrating this action looking for votes, or a talking point for the next election ? traffic does not flow both ways
Less space to walk.
nothing.

One way, bike lanes.

Waste of money that will also screw up traffic patterns throughout barrio,esp on Roosevelt
not a fan
speed of vehicles. takes space away from needed wide walkway.

Two way traffic helps access and manage low speeds.

No sidewalks on the western side, trees and street lighting not shown but likely narrows sidewalk width.

Only one side has sidewalks.

Bikes going against traffic. Maybe install vertical flexible delineators between bikes and cars?
See concern on opt 1
No sidewalk on one end doesn't look balanced. Hard for pedestrians that want to visit the other side of the street.
1 way south doesn't allow drivers to go to village, 1 way north doesn't allow if need to go south, must drive extra north & turn around.

The only one way street in town is going to cause confusion.

What concerns you about option 2?
No sidewalk on the left side.

Too little space
Zero
one way traffic for cars- should be one way traffic lane for bikes. no sidewalk on west side of street-not safe to cross street if you are a pedestrian. Pedestrian has minimal usage with this model Not decorative like option 1.

I particularly don’t like one way streets
Confusing since vehicular traffic is one way & bike traffic is two way.

Potential for accident
Bicyclists represent a small use case for the roadway and should not be heavily. This option is terrible.

Tyler court not having a loading and unloading for seniors on the west side. Seniors/ handicap would have to cross street for east side pick up or drop off. Dangerous street crossing.

Nothing
Will the bike lane going south be blocked by the businesses on the West side of the street.

Sidewalk only on one side of street, drive lane appears to be one way only
Bike lane in middle of road. You except the bike rider to see both side of traffic and look straignt ahead.

The one way direction should be to the south to feed traffic away from people trying to park for the businesses and Boys and Girls club in the area and avoid the cars leaving the huge mixed use building at State and Oak. You should be trying to feed vehicles away from the area instead of increasing congestion — especially when people are dropping off or picking up kids at the B and G Club.

None
How do pedestrians cross to the west side?
The bike lanes should be protected. The parking should be removed so cars don't have to cross over into the bike lane. This option is better, but very in complete. Where is the option with one way cars, dedicated biking, and no parking? Why isn't that even on the table? When bicyclists pay road tax then let them have half of the road The one way aspect. Not needed.

What concerns you about option 2?
Having only one way. Cause more traffic on other parallel streets.

Confusion.
no decorative pavers
I personally think one way streets create confusion and frustration. I also think two bike lanes isn't worth the trade off.
inconvenient if you need to travel south. Diverts southbound traffic to adjacent streets. Bike lanes unnecessary since rail trail is so near.

The street becomes one way only
No other street in the area are one way so it’s unexpected for those of us who use this street occasionally
sidewalk on only one side is not good for the children. only one way traffic is a pain in the neck for some residents there.

Nothing - in general, I believe one way streets might work well for other Barrio north/south streets.

One way for cars is a big out point. One sidewalk is also not good.

Even as a cyclist, it's sacrificing too much for bikes.

Nothing
No sidewalk on the other side.

Only one one-way traffic lane. Only one sidewalk on one-side of street. It is a short connector street so don't put bicycle use ahead of car and pedestrian use.

Tyler doesn't have a lot of traffic. Making it one way is not going to help.
sidewalk only on one side of street
You apparently are interested in serving only bicyclists.

Too much black top
East side parking.

It is unnecessary to have two bike lanes and removed to a traffic.

There isn’t enough bicycle riding on that street to justify removing one lane of traffic
Unnecessary dedicated bike lanes when they are available less than 200 feet away on the Rail Trail.

Traffic, no sidewalk on other side of street
One way, may impede the traffic, and pedestrians

What concerns you about option 2?
Safety! Bike lanes in BOTH directions are contrary to bike laws, which state cyclists are supposed to ride with traffic and follow car laws.

Adding a bike lane against traffic only creates confusion, and confusion reduces safety. It is also 100% unnecessary, given that a block west is the rail trail bike path, and a block east is Roosevelt with beautiful wide bike lanes on both sides. There is zero reason to put a wrong way bike lane on Tyler. I’d also like the parking moved to the west side, again for safety reasons. Fewer driveways to infringe upon on the west side.

I don't understand how this is ONE WAY NORTH??!!! you are asking me to approve a BIKE land going in the opposite direction from NORTH. Does not make sense!
no sidewalk on other side?
Lack of sidewalk on the opposing side.
one way car lane, two way bike lane is confusing
We need two way traffic for cars. Sidewalk on only one side could result in people walking in the bike lane. Why are bikes being prioritized?
Bad idea. The only one way street in the area.
only one-way traffic, no sidewalk on the west side
No precedent?
No parking or sidewalk on one side
There needs to be sidewalks on both sides
Looks too commercial.

No pedestrian facilities on one side
Sidewalks on only one side, traffic being moved to a different street (in order to go south)
only one sidewalk, could replace parking with a second sidewalk Noise , Noise . Now I can hear every Conversation. Drunks singing, people on motorcycle s, people riding bikes , talking, laughing , foul language, gossip . I can’t afford to live anywhere else . Live only on Social Security.

Bike lane flowing against traffic. Completely counter to all cycling training.

There is not sidewalk on one side of the road - very inequitable for the businesses on one side of the street. Some space on the road is not used. This is not efficient.

Need 2 way traffic
One way traffic would be inconvenient. I don't see a need for two bike lanes.

It’s a one way street for automobiles and pedestrians which impacts automobile traffic flow and restricts to pedestrians to one side impacting access.

Bikes should not be prioritized over cars in regards to dedicated space.

There is only 1 sidewalk
Nothing.

Do not desire one way traffic.

Maybe make the parking next to traffic and biking next to pedestrians so cars protect bikes and people rather than hitting them potentially.

Think nyc, dc or Santa Barbara in terms of design where biking and pedestrians are more welcomed

don't like the conversion to one-way
Lack of safety. One way traffic speeding How will seniors walk out with no sidewalk on the west side??? It is already difficult for the elderly to cross the street
Traffic only goes one wau
One lane one way street. Sidewalk on only one side. Parking on only one side. If one lane road, I'd like parking on BOTH sides until the City builds alternative parking for locals to be able to frequent Village shops and restaurants.

What concerns you about option 2?
This is my preferred option
Bike lane between cars, sidewalk only one way
No need to restrict traffic to one direction.

Making it one way to traffic won't detour cyclists from going both ways
changes the dynamic of our town and that whole area will add more confusion and congestion
People may be confused on the direction if there is not proper signage saying it is one way.

Pedestrians
one bike lane doesnt have a buffer area between it and the car lane One way is always confusing and a hassle
Have one way bike lanes.

Sidewalk only on one side; replacing parking with sidewalks on both sides would be preferable
One way
I have hardly ever seen a bicycle on Tyler Street. We don't need separate bike lanes in an area without bikes. There are also few pedestrians.

The sidewalk on one side only. One-way street could create more traffic for those unaware of exactly where they are going. one way limits accessibility
Not so pretty
The width of the road. Bike lanes are not necessary because a bike path is west of the road. Sharrows should suffice for bike riders on the short roadway.

Not two ways
Little traffic so no need one way. No need bike lanes, there is the rail trail literally feet away.

Bikers are going to go all over, as they double-up, ride with family, etc.

I also think the one-way aspect of the street will create undue traffic from people having to circle the block. And, in looking at the option with 3, I think it would be better for the residents if the parking is on the other side to make it feel more open for them.

What concerns you about option 2?

1. Bike lanes in both directions is 100% contrary to bike laws. Cyclists are supposed to follow car laws, as in go with the flow of traffic, not against it. Having bike lanes in both directions, on a one way street, creates confusion. Confusion diminishes safety. Cyclists already have nice wide bike lanes a block away, on Roosevelt. They don’t need to ride both directions on a one way street. 2. Parking on the east side.

There are many more driveways on the east side than the west.

Parking in the west side, instead of the east side, would create safety.

Increased Traffic on Roosevelt and Chestnut for vehicles entering Tyler St Residents should be able to acess safe pedestrian sidewalks on both sides of street
This will be a disruption to the current traffic flow and add more traffic to Roosevelt St. Roosevelt is already used as a thoroughfare between Village Dr and Tamarack.

I am not in favor of one way traffic
Two many bike lanes on such a small street.

Seems more realistic, if there is speed mitigation Sidewalks on both sides If speed limits is low enough Shared space in the middle Good – Most traffic comes from east, he gets east to west + crossing there can be difficult Moving parking to west side is great Since cyclists already share lanes currently isn’t a change which avoids confusion One sidewalk could be okay Right now you can be more easily seen walking in street (dangerous w people pulling out of driveways)
SIDEWALK: favors sidewalks on both sides PARKING: favors inclusion of parking, but should be on both sides TWO-WAY: business owners and property manager prefers two-way street to cater to businesses and loading; residents prefer one-way for safety and less perceived traffic Like the idea of the sidewalk on the west side
It is a typical traffic scenario, so it works.

Sidewalk on both sides of street and no overhead power lines over sidewalks Being able to drive both ways on Tyler Street. Having sidewalks that are protected and safer for pedestrians by having the curbs.

Maintaining 2-way traffic. Raised sidewalks seem safer for pedestrians than just having decorative paving.

I like west side parking better. Love sidewalks on both sides Maintains existing parking and car access in both directions.

I like that there is a graded sidewalk on both sides of the street.

Sidewalks on both sides.
-Sidewalks with curbs on both sides of the street.

The street works better as it is, this is not needed. Where is option 4 - which is add a short stretch of sidewalk from the senior Tyler apartments to Chestnut on the Westside so those residents can access rail trail instead of going in the street on that very brief stretch in front of just one property instead of ripping up the whole block as a needless & expensive project???

One way street is bad idea due to blind spots Trucks unloading and blocking the entire street/no way around them Don’t like this option Don’t like the idea of parking on the west side, as this may lead to people parking in front of Tyler Court Apartments Would like to see red curb in no parking areas Business owner (Leucadia Towing) concerned with parking on west side, may make getting trucks in/out difficult Would be nice to have the sidewalk on the east widened slightly How is the city going to account for growth along the west side? Need additional parking enforcement Will the businesses on the east side have a loss of foot traffic and be harmed? Shared bike/car lanes. Just not safe for bikes due to prevalent drivers in a hurry in the Barrio
Making sure people are driving safely in their cars and are attentive to bikes that would be sharing the lane (for the safety of the cyclists).

Moving parallel parking to the west side. I'm not sure what the purpose would be. Might make ingress and egress to parking lots for businesses on the west side more difficult.

Street is not wide enough for two way traffic, sidewalks on both sides and parking on one side.

Not enough parking, narrow sidewalk (pathway) on one side I do not like that the bikes still have to share the road with the vehicles.

Should allow 2-way bike paths.

It's too busy
I really don't like the shared lanes for bikes and cars along the entirety of Tyler Street. I think drivers get frustrated at going 10-15 mph.

The share lanes for bikes and vehicles, particularly in this location, are problematic. This will create unsafe conditions for all involved.

Tyler is narrow. Is there really room for continuous sidewalks on both sides, plus two way traffic? We already have two way traffic, shared by bikes and cars, parking (albeit unenforced) On only one side, and a sidewalk on only one side, and we often still need to pull over to let an oncoming car squeeze through.

Narrowing the road by adding sidewalk to the west side just doesn’t seem to fit. cars and bikes in same lanes
Not much; this seems like the best option.
cars and bikes in same lane, but if it works on 101 Leucadia, I guess it can work in what amounts to an alley.

Bikes sharing lanes with cars never works. A car does not want to go 10 mph behind a bike. It always ends up where the car tries to pass the bike. Plus, it is unreasonable to ask cars to drive behind bikes which go much slower.

Reduces parking.

What concerns you about option 3?
changing things around
Nothing.

No safe space for bikes. There is no point in changing where the cars park. That doesn’t seem like it serves a purpose for any reason at all. It seems like making more work
NO PARKING. Why such wide sidewalks?
Cars and bikes sharing. Purpose of moving parking from one side to the other??? People can use sidewalks on one side.

Shared bike lane
Is it wide enough for all of this?
parking on west side

YOUR ALLEGIANCE TO BIKES WHY ARE WE PAYING FOR ALL THESE SURVEYS WHEN YOU DON'T LISTEN TO YOUR RESIDENTS????
Someone is going to get killed
Worst ideas ever. Mixing bikes and cars in a "Shared" lane is not safe.

No decorative paving
Bikes in the same lanes as cars isn't as safe.

Shared bike and car, nope
No need for one way street here. Not busy.

Parking should remain on the east side in front of the homes & residences. a lot of time money and energy for no big difference
bike share lanes are confusing for a lot of people that have never seen them and Carlsbad has lots of non-resident traffic
Looks crammed to accommodate for all directions, vehicles, and pedestrians.

Not enough space for bicycles
no dedicated bike lane
I don't like bikes in driving lanes.

Cars and bikes share space
Wider sidewalk on one side is better option.

There is no need for sidewalks on both sides of the street when there are hardly any pedestrians. Don't fix what ain't broke.

I see this as the best option and don't see a drawback with sharing bike and driving lanes. It's a small street and should serve all parties. may not be enough room to add sidewalk on the west, but a minor issue compared to moving the parking to the west side
Not so pretty

What concerns you about option 3?
Road width. Mixed use for traffic. Narrow sidewalks. Improvements are for tomorrow, not the present time. Increased traffic will create more unsafe conditions.

N/a
Could use money on more urgent traffic issues in Carlsbad. Buy more quality green paint for bike access lanes. Just painted areas from several months ago is fading fast and soon to be low visible. Repaint with high quality street paint.

Not a concern, but I just wonder if you really need a sidewalk on both sides versus extending the walking area on one side to make it bigger for people (especially if you were going to make it more tiled/decorative).

Tyler is narrow. Is there really room for sidewalks on both sides? Limiting on street parking and more multi residential units being built without parking. No one buys a million + dollar unit and doesn’t own a vehicle It’s better than option 2 but lesser than option 1 for reasons stated above I am fine with maintaining parking on the East side of the Street.

Street lighting is non existent per se, so putting bikes and cars in the same lane is problematic.
